    The current global threat landscape has shifted dramatically in the past several months due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Security professionals are being tasked with keeping the company’s data safe with an influx of remote workers that we’ve never had to account for. Inevitably something is going to happen. An incident WILL arise. You may have had a great plan in the past, and you probably continuously tested it. But have you tested it now that the IT and InfoSec departments are separated and the employees are everywhere? In either case, it’s time to reevaluate your Incident Response plan to accommodate for this unprecedented shift.

    Welcome to the new normal. Many, including me, praised the ideas of Rugged DevOps, Zero Trust, and the implementation of Artificial Intelligence, as well as other novel security practices. While many had plans on implementing some or all of these practices, a black swan event occurred, thus causing a category 5 disturbance to affect every person and every company in the world. Information Security was once considered by some to be a mandatory cost center for a company. Real-life examples are showing that chaos and opportunity are allowing security to show its true promise and enabling business to thrive.

    10:00 am - 10:30 am

    Nothing has been more disruptive to the landscape of the financial services industry than digital transformation, defined as “the process of using digital technologies to create new—or modify existing—business processes, culture, and customer experiences to meet changing business and market requirements.” In this session, we’ll demonstrate how all digital transformation efforts rely, ultimately, on machines, whether those are virtual and serverless systems, containers and applications, or IoT and end-user devices.

    We’ll also show how a whole new security category has arisen—what Gartner calls Machine Identity Management—to instantly and dynamically protect the tens of thousands of machine identities driving digital transformation. Lastly, we’ll show how Visibility, Intelligence, and Automation are the building blocks you need to design and implement a Machine Identity Management program that bridges current practices and the emerging technologies of the future.

    XDR is an emerging industry approach that extends EDR’s insight to a broad range of sources (endpoint, servers, network, email; and more). Learn how the XDR approach takes advantage of detailed activity telemetry (not just alerts) from its sources, enabling more meaningful correlation and enabling rapid detection of subtle chains of malicious activity. Higher-fidelity correlated detections mean that alert volumes decrease, enabling faster response. See how network and email telemetry help XDR expand your coverage of MITRE’s ATT&CK frameworks, without resorting to painstaking manual correlation across security toolsets.

    If Cryptography Is So Important, Why Is It So Misunderstood?

    10:45 am - 11:15 am

    Data encryption, Digital Signatures/Certificates, Application Encryption, and PKI are all technologies that use CRYPTOGRAPHIC functions, yet most of the companies that implement these technologies trust their vendors that their solutions provide the appropriate amount of security without questioning the specifics of their implementation. Why? It’s simple: Cryptography is hard to understand, and if the vendor says they’ll take care of it, most companies believe their vendor. This is a mistake, and companies need to start questioning their crypto vendors, and the only way to do this is to understand crypto. Crypto isn’t hard if you know what to look for and what questions to ask. Brad Beutlich will talk about these topics and provide a number of sample questions that every company should ask any vendor who says “Don’t worry, we’ve got your crypto covered.”

    As sophisticated threat actors like state-sponsored and organized crime gangs use ever harder to detect attacks, many mid-sized firms are turning to Managed Detection and Response (MDR) vendors to provide continuous SOC services, including threat identification, investigation and containment. But like much in the security industry, not all MDR services are alike, and range from marketeering to advanced threat hunting capabilities. How can you know the difference? Join Mark Sangster as he walks you through five questions you can ask your vendor to determine if they are capable of stopping crippling attacks before they disrupt your business.

    Companies had no real choice as we all moved to the “new normal” and a fledgling at home workforce due to the coronavirus outbreak. If you stop and think about it, it was quite the feat—a massive cloud migration the likes of which had never been seen before. Now that things are somewhat settled into a pattern, what are you discovering that should have been done differently? Realizing that a lot of the same things need to be done? How is the network perimeter now? How many devices are suddenly on your networks? IoT devices from the remote workers piggybacking on the home connections? What are the legal challenges now (think reasonable security)? Join us for a panel discussion of security experts.

    Ransomware attacks cause major business disruptions resulting in significant time expenditures, technical resources, and related costs in order to return to full business operations. The traditional recovery approach using backups and reimaging or simply paying the ransom fails to address the root cause of the attack and remove persistent threats. This failure leaves organizations open to secondary attacks, negating initial efforts. Our experts from the front lines of incident response and endpoint recovery are helping organizations effectively recover from attacks with speed and precision to surgically remove ransomware.

    Your business is moving data to the cloud without all the security controls mandated for on-prem. After all, the promised economics and business agility are far too attractive for business leaders to ignore. But attackers are after data, auditors demand evidence, and Security is still responsible for protecting data. You need to catch up with that data before attackers and auditors find it, and you need to catch up right now.

    Join Imperva to learn how to reconcile Security’s need for visibility with the business’s need for speed and agility—in minutes. This session will include:

    • Learn the fast path to getting control of your data already in the cloud
    • What capabilities you will have to bring to make cloud DBaaS secure and audit-ready
